105 Days of Summer!

Kick off the 105 Days of Summer on June 2nd on Milwaukee's lakefront!

105 Days of Summer is a summer long event presenting a wide variety of family-friendly, free or low-cost activities in the Milwaukee County Parks. This program of The Park People of Milwaukee County, in conjunction with the Milwaukee County Parks Department, is intended to encourage members of our community get up, get active, and make outdoor activities an even greater part of their lives.

 

Oak Leaf Discovery Tour

Hey Milwaukee, get out, get active, and rediscover your Oak Leaf Trail. You could win valuable prizes doing so!

Join The Park People as we launch The Oak Leaf Discovery Tour Passport event. This event goes on all summer long and starts with your purchase of the Oak Leaf Discovery Tour Passport. This pocket sized book, which comes with a map of the Oak Leaf Trail, has pictures and information about 14 county park locations along or near the 115 mile Oak Leaf Trail. When you visit one of these destinations, you collect special "stamps" in your passport. Collect at least 8 stamps, register your passport, and be eligible to win prizes at the end of summer. Prizes include bikes, biking supplies, and gift certificates.

Keep up with the Park People

Welcome to the Park People!

The Park People believe that public parks enrich our lives and communities. Whether one is biking along a path, pushing a child in a swing, or merely cherishing a view, our daily lives benefit from our park experiences. They enhance our quality of life.

For over thirty years, The Park People of Milwaukee County, Inc. (TPP), a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization, has educated and involved the public in decisions concerning our parks through our mission: Citizen Stewardship of Milwaukee County Parks.

Our members have raised millions of dollars for public projects including historical preservation, public art restoration, parks improvements and public tree planting.
